From Tebay in thick morning mist with a promise of sunshine, up the road to Tebaygill then a handy ATV track all the way to Blease Fell. Continued on an ATV to Uldale Head, still in mist. We thought about calling it a day, but the sun was threatening to finally show its face so we went over to Docker Knott and Hand Lake. As we descended northwards the cloud cleared and the sun shined bright over the Howgill horizon. We picked up the track to Long Gills and then the minor road back to Tebay. 3.5hrs round.summitter03/09/2023

2/2 Parked Carlingill and walked up the stream then turned up the fell beside the intake wall. Straight up not too bad, then curved round head of valley to Uldale Head. Then storm Ciara made her advanced party known to us and we retreated to the car carefully! Pretty side valleys.nickywood108/02/2020
